Boat Rental

It is late as I sit to write so I plan to be quick.

Luke 5.

I am about to say something that is so obvious that it sounds stupid to say it but I’m saying it anyway. 

YESHUA is so smart!

Think about the most intelligent man you know; the wisest, just so brilliant! — he is dumber than dirt compared to JESUS.

Verses 1-3 
The people were crowding The LORD to hear The WORD of the LORD. Pressing in they were. YESHUA saw two boats on the beach. He requested permission to board, told Simon Peter to put out a little way and from there He taught the people. Pressing problem solved. 

Acoustics! From the boat with water all around, all the people could hear Him. 

And then. Some more KWT paraphrasing. 

YESHUA paid boat rental!

Don’t you see it?  Look at verses 4 and 5. 
YESHUA told Peter to launch out and put down the nets. Peter said we did that all night and caught nothing but since you say so I will. 

Oh, what a haul of fish they got!

Like I said boat rental!
And an invitation to Peter to believe. He did!

Please notice with me that the GODMAN is truly GOD and truly the perfect Man. 
Smart. Intelligent. Kind. Considerate. Honest. Caring. THE ONLY PERFECT MAN!
To any seeking fallen human, meeting YESHUA was the greatest happening in their life. 
Still is! 
There is NO ONE like HIM.
To know Him is to love Him. 

Do you? 

Good-Evening-Everyone

Luke 3

I am bringing a little KWT paraphrasing to you today. 

Click HERE for a convenient read of  Luke 3.

Verse 3There must be a turning TO GOD from sin for a person to be forgiven. Without repentance, there is NO forgiveness. 

Verse 8 John speaking to the people of Israel. Don’t even try to fool yourselves or anyone else, if you have really turned from your sins, you will produce fruit that proves it. 

Verse 9 People who profess they have turned from their sins but do not produce fruit that proves their repentance are still lost and will be going to hell. 

Verse 21 – Yeshua had been operating in faith (as He did His whole time here on earth) for all those years up to the time of this verse, for The Father to say what He said aloud to Him must have been warm and wonderful to His Perfect Human Ears.
To hear GOD the Father say: “You are My SON, whom I love, I am well pleased with You.”
I hope you will ponder this. Think about what it meant to JESUS, The GODMAN, living here on this sin-cursed planet by FAITH, reading the Tanakh, and living in obedience to what He read and to HEAR His Father’s Voice – aloud in His ears! 
How wonderful is that?!!

Happy Saturday, My Friends!

Love, Kathie

May I draw your attention to a few verses this evening?

Verse 2. the first of its kind
This was the first census. 
Requiring Mary to travel in the third trimester – a 90-mile trip. 
Do you wonder who was behind that idea? Do you know Who knew it was going to happen? Do you know there was a prophecy that Yeshua would be born in Bethlehem? And born in Bethlehem He was. GOD is always 100% accurate. (Micah 5:2)
In my experience, GOD uses things of this earthly journey (even the inconvenient, uncomfortable, and downright hard stuff) to move His people to the right place at the right time. Why! He can even use the stuff the devil initiates to flip back on the devil and turn it for our good. There’s a Scripture for that isn’t there? Romans 8:28

You will note in verse 6 that YESHUA was Mary’s FIRST child. She had other children after JESUS.
But JESUS is the ONLY GODMAN.

Verse 11. there was born for you a Deliverer
The angel said to the Shepherds born for you. Imagine being a shepherd and hearing that. FOR YOU.
But that was not all they heard: A DELIVERER.

They needed A DELIVERER.

So do we.
I think people today don’t believe that. They don’t believe they need A Deliverer.
A Deliverer from what, they might ask.

From what indeed!

How many things can you name from which THE DELIVERER has delivered you? 

Have a good evening, my Friends. 

Love, Kathie
